oh ...nicely done there.. lets distract to a corner over there... really.. I , like other s were just discussing the merits of Curnow... can you do that too Whos jumping to a conclusion...Im stating an opinion. You really just dont like it Ben when anyone supports something you don;t get over it . So lets dispense with the straw...and back to Curnow. Yes he's 18...they often make silly decisions. He's in a position where he's being groomed to play footy at the highest level. He should have his wits about him,seems he's forgotten 50 % of them. Did you actually address my point ? No Recent drafts have been about recruiting kids with their heads firmly planted on their shoulders. Their disposition has been professional towards their immediate futures. They're swtiched on. Curnow strikes me as a bit of an idiot. That he does this..and gets done for it makes this reader/writer immediately start to think what other stupid things might he have done that he hasn't been caught for ? The Saints are already ruing taking Carlisle. Why would you knowingly do the same. Its about the person not his playing position. Too much of a reach for you ?

recruiters just washed hands !!

lol

Im just mulling over who the club has drafted in recent years... The type...the character.. Curnow reminds me of...........no one...just saying

it's a right of passage ...no ?

This path to appealing looks a bit like this :

I wouldn't suppose that as such. We don't actually know that WADA hasnt subpoenaed anyone. The Supreme Court upheld that ASADA couldn't at that instance. No such inference was made that WADA couldn't as they operate at another level. Its a bit murky yes. They can appear via video link.. personal attendances as such aren't a default clue here.

what are your leanings ?

why broadcast your intentions needlessly ? Remote ..but impossible ?

agree with such...some will , some wont. CC just lurched across the median strip !!

sounds like such but only a real idiot would risk what the Police, may , or may not do. Sounds like a conspiracy...more just a dlckhead !!

I did think both Weed and CC would slide a bit from their lofty elevations...That was before this too. A lot of what will go to selections are how the lads interviewed and such. Be difficult for may scribes if any to be privy to that and at this end of things might just nudge one player forward and others along as it were. We only see from the outside and clubs are deciding with 'inside' knowledge. Whilst I think you do need to bank and build for rainy days Melbourne has no such luxury. If we are to maintain momentum and retain the interest of the list it has to get moving and very quickly. Players who will take that time to develop arent adding to the cake a great deal in the near future. Who ever comes will need to be dead keep on pushing for games next year. That doesnt mean to say they will get them , but they might, nor do we NEED them there , but it helps. Just as Gus said Im here let me at it...and made selecting him irresistible I think Parish could do similar... The effect of more ability in the guts will be a tonic for this team.

really ?? just failed the no DH test id have thought !!

C.C yeah NAH !!

Wow...some read...great read Thanks and good luck

No...nor would i but i might roll out a trojan horse as it were.Pick 3 is hiding in plain sight. Pick 7 ...hmm. I keep thinking about why we played shenanigans for 3. Has to be for someone whod be there at 3 but not 4 . Only one really fits....Parish.

they were moved from the fridge to the oven

read Emma's scribblings on this...is very good

No need to pray OD... they're cooked

Well supposedly they finish hearing it today ( end of he 5 days set aside ) Will be interesting to hear of who else might have turned up. Though video is allowed so the folk dont actually need to be their in person Wonder how the media will spin the silence !

That alone is intriguing

A bit like looking at the form guide to the cup I'd say. The writers have their perspectives and their own hunches. Invariably apart from the first picks very few drafts go according to anyones script.

and what chance a player OUTSIDE of that six is taken ?

a decent sentiment ( cant agree about the Toump...Ais h may/mightn't ) Totally agree about opinions Ill probably be happy enough if we take parish...he's different as you suggest and its that difference we crave...as to 7 ...ah well....Agree kpps on offer ( that we can get ) are a bit suss this or ho hum that. Still we might end up with one..

Ive totally come to this ideal also...best avail.. Id reiterate a concern that rpfc illustrated a while back and that was the worry youd reach past a better mid to get a good fwd only because its perceived we are lame up front and the only way is to recruit a fwd ( who wont impact likely for 2-3 anyway )
